Royal hotel
Staff were amazing, helpful and friendly, checkin easy, only slight issue was the fold down bed mattress was very thin and had metal bars prodding through when you lay down for the 4th person in our room, great to get our Basel travel cards too, location brilliant so overall highly recommended

It's very convenient to use train and bus. You can use Basel pass provided by the hotel, to go anywhere you like in the city.

Awesome staff and place to stay
The young lady at the front desk was extremely helpful to us, and offered us directions to the city. It was so nice to have the transport pass even though we had Swiss Rail passes that we could have used, but hat was a very nice touch. The room was so nice and large and the bed was fantastic!!!!! It was quite and very well positioned in the city. Love this place!

10/10 Exceptional

Traveling from Canada, we found Basel to be quite expensive. That said, Royal Hotel provided really good value for money. It was professionally run, the self check-in was easy, and being across the street from transit was very convenient. The unit was small, but very clean and as advertised. There were 5 of us (two adults and three teen children) and had a good sleep. It was nice to have a (small) work area too. We'd stay again!
Andy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Not being able to easily leave suitcases at reception , because it’s more like serviced rooms than a hotel was difficult but being able to check in at 12 and access our room straight away was really good .
Helen, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Very loud and the building was shaking throughout the night as the hotel is directly across from the German train station. unsure what bit me overnight (10 bites), but it wasn’t a mosquito. Front desk was staffed with very welcoming and helpful people! We appreciated the Basel card that provided free transportation and half off museums. Loved the city of Basel, but would not stay here again.

8/10 Very good

Room was a bit dated and it felt like I was the only guest! No front desk staff in the evening - had to get in outside via a machine which was a little unnerving. In the morning the front desk attendee was very polite and helpful

Resepsiyon görevlisi, çok ilgili ve yardımcı idi. Oda temiz ve ferah,kahvaltı güzeldi. Merkeze yürüyerek 15-20 dk, toplu taşıma ile bir aktarma yaparak 5-6 dk.da ulaşılabilir. Tüm otellerde bu uygulama var mı bilmiyorum ama bize bir kart verdiler ve bu kart sayesinde havaalanına dönüş dahil konaklama süresince toplu taşıma araçlarından ücretsiz yararlanabildik, ayrıca bu kart ile tiyatro/ konser gibi etkinliklerde %50 indirimden yararlanabileceğimiz söylendi. Biz bir gece kaldığımız için bundan yararlanamadık, ama böyle bir imkanın sunulmuş olması çok güzel.

Hundevenligt hotel med manglende lydisolering
Hotellet var rigtig hundevenligt. Vores Golden Retriever giver hotellet 5 stjerner i alle kategorier! Resten af familien manglede lydisolering af vinduerne ifht. Togtrafikstøj og fyrværkeri. Servicen er baseret på selvbetjening og tilkald, men var venlig. Sengene var gode, badeværelset vidunderligt, morgenmaden fin og beliggenheden central.
